Monkeysreef March 13, 2021 Share March 13, 2021 Need advice on a DYI screen top. So I have narrowed my choice down to either the Red Sea kit or the DD Jump guard. My question is for anyone that has experience with both which do you prefer and why? Which one has more heavy duty rails? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20LogR March 15, 2021 Share March 15, 2021 I've always just used screen top corners and sides from Home Depot with the mesh that you can get from BRS. Do you have lot cut outs or are you looking for a standard 4 corner top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a few cutouts but my problem with standard screen rails they are flimsy they bow and twist very easy I do home remodelling and have built quite a few screens. With as much time and energy that I've put into building this system I just want something a little bit nicer and cleaner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpu933k March 15, 2021 Share March 15, 2021 I really like my DD jumpguard, but I never used the RedSea so cannot compare. I don't have any cutouts and am using it on a IM Nuvo 20. I like how the tabs are on the corners and it sits slightly recessed into the tank which I find more sleek than the RedSea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20LogR March 16, 2021 Share March 16, 2021 I assumed Redsea was using the same screen frame material and was just providing different corner pieces. Sounds like that's not the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
